Jim Carrey addicted to Godfellas

Jim Carrey hasn’t beaten all his vices!

The eccentric star admits he’s addicted to Martin Scorsese‘s gangster epic Goodfellas, to the point where it sometimes gets in the way of his life.

“I love that movie too much,” admits Jim. “If it comes on, no matter if it’s like 1am and I have a big thing to do the next day, I just have to watch it. I can’t stop. Scorsese does that to you!”

Carrey recently revealed that he used to want to be a vet.

“I wanted to be a veterinarian when I was a kid,” explains Jim. “But then I found out about the whole euthanasia thing and I said, ‘Can’t commit to that, sorry!’ It was my father who then put me onto comedy and performing.

“I would look at my father and how every time we had people over he would stand in the middle of the room, and people were just astounded at his creativity and his animation when he told a story. I just went, ‘Wow!’ There was no choice for me. It was like, ‘That’s how I’m gonna get on in the world! I want to be that guy.’”
